Day 24 – I couldn’t bring myself to post yesterday. I just wanted to do nothing for the entire day. I know it is a bit of depression but I just needed a day to feel bad about everything and wallow in it. I am much better today. I think I was mourning all that I couldn’t do and really missed. Friends came by over the weekend and we talked through the window. It was nice to talk to someone other than my family.  But, I missed going out and seeing people. Going shopping for “fun.” Eating out in a restaurant (which we rarely did before but now that I cannot I want to do it more!). Even all the running around to the lessons and classes I am missing. My car goes out about once a week now and only for a few miles. I know we are doing good things for the environment, the health of the people around us, and even our lives but I still miss some things.

What is the number one thing you miss?

We cooked a turkey last week and I had some turkey leftover, after sandwiches, and the carcass. I decided to make an easy turkey hash with the dinner leftovers and serve it over garlic smashed potatoes (our family favorite).

Verdict:

This was so good! It looks like dog food but it was delicious. The kids all asked for it again next time we make a turkey dinner. I had plenty of leftover stuffing and turkey but you can make extra stuffing if you desire. The potatoes are super simple to make too.

Serve this with a green vegetable and side salad to complete your meal.
